    These are little beauties, well worth the wait in my opinion.

    Come on Jenny it deserves a 50! Fabulous model in every way! And the detail doesn’t fall off!
    Do we really need anyone than an 8 pin decoder! What extra do we get with a 21 pin? If we do, do we really need it! The fact that retailers are selling them at a healthy discount means they are a must for the normal modeller! Well done Hornby!!!😊😊

    Hornby at its best. The hobby needs/deserves a strong Hornby.

    I had a chance to drive one of these in BR days so was delighted when the model became available - I agree that it is a superb model and performs very well on my layout - good steady performance

    Hi Jenny,
    I’ve purchased 2 of these and yes they have been worth waiting for, they are very accurate models indeed.
    For Hornby to provide variety with AWS fitted to 78047 and an unfitted 78054 is wonderful.
    Personally I feel these are a better model all round from them.
    As I model the Highland region between 1955-1985 I am a very happy modeller indeed and look forward to the Black Five next year.
    Hope you and the cupboard Monkey have a wonderful Christmas and a peaceful new year.

    The cab design was an attempt to follow the contours of the new Mk1 coaching stock, while at full width, as the Ivatt loco, giving maximum room and driver/fireman seats...
    Thanks for a very in-depth review , excellent...

    Another reason for BR’s standardisation was the fact the railways were flat broke after WWII, so any cost savings were of paramount importance. That aside, this is a lovely-looking model reviewed at n an excellent video.

    Jenny good review for DCC, but how does it run on DC?

  • @DevonGeorge85
    @DevonGeorge85 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The one omission that lets it down was the lack of any representation of the running gear between the frame. There's a lot of daylight under that boiler so it was a shame. Still, it's good looking well made model and I'm certainly happy with mine.

    Nice engine Jen :-) Not my sort of thing really but nevertheless a pretty model! Joachim

  • @little_britain
    @little_britain 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    The 2MT wouldn't have any inside motion, it is outside cylinder and outside (Walschaerts) valve gear - so nothing to see between the frames.

    Hi Jenny, I got mine today. Did you remove the capacitor ( for DC running ) I dont see it in your video. Mine was a pig to get started once the HM7000 chip was fitted. I eventually got it to go in reverse. After that it seems OK. However for some reason it occasionally stops going over a non electrofrog point ( sound on ) then starts off again without me doing anything. Not tried it yet with the hornby app. I think the sound is very quite, I may have to put in the 25mm speaker rather than the small sugar cube that came with the Hornby decoder.

      Cupboard Monkey usually only shows up on The Monday Club (or the second channel, JK2).
